Looks good, congratulations. Can you post some pic of the boot. I am trying to decide between a 518d m sport or a 3gt m sport. I have just got a new born so need a decent space in the boot for pram etc.

Thanks for the comments. I know what you mean.

We've got a Quinny Buzz and on the E90 that was the boot gone, had to quick release the wheels off it as well.

The 5's is much bigger but not tried the Buzz yet, looks like it will swallow it easily. I'll try and get a pic up over the next couple of days.

Apparently the 3GT is built on a Japanese only market 5 series long wheel base floor plan if I remember correctly. It's quite a whopper.

Thanks your help would be much appreciated.

We had the Stokke explory in our e91, and it pretty much filled the boot.

The F11 on the other hand, you still have space along the front (or back depending on how you load it), for plenty shopping.

It seems almost as long as the boot in the P38 (not quite though), certainly doesn't have the height though.
